Can’t Be Beat
There simply isn’t a better handling tire in all climates! This is my 6th or 7th set of these tires on three different trucks since the year 2001!
Michelin Comes Through
I bought the Defender LTX to replace a set of XLT A/S for my GMC Sierra that were 10 years old but still had great tread left on them. If I get the same level of wear on these new ones, I will be very happy. Michelin has never let me down.
Safest, most comfortable ride you can get is with Michelin's on your vehicle.
Have Michelin Defender LTX 2 on our Lincoln Navigator, and Defender 2 on our Ford Explorer Platinum. They are the most comfortable, best handling, with perfect traction in all weather conditions. They handle the most aggressive roads, are extremely durable, and the tread outlasts the warranty by many miles.
Great handling
well this is the first time me using Michelin tires and I think they're great tires they're holding up to my standards so far I haven't had a problem and they're some of the best I could get.
Great tires
I have used these tires on all my vehicles. Honda Pilot, Lincoln Navigator and just got theses tires on 2025 Toyota tundra. The dealer tires that came with the tundra were only good for 25k. Michelin defenders always lasted 80-85k when properly rotated on time.
Tires are very quiet and smooth
Great tire for Trucks
I purchased these tires based on consumer reviews of comfort handling, durability and treadwear, I have had them in the past and they were a terrific tire for my truck (Ram 2500) I was more than pleased with the tires.
Great features
Handling is great, especially when pulling my trailer. Very quiet, almost zero road noise
Great set of tires
Had them before on my wifes QX80, then went with another tire the last time. I came back to these this time. they run quiet, they did great for my wife in both the rain and the snow. They also lasted really close to their general rated amount.
Great ride, quiet. The only tire I would purchase
